I usually ice the bodice on to the doll to make the dress. But I have seen someone else's version and she just cut a piece of fabric and tied it around the body of the doll to look like a strapless dress. As for the veil, you could probably make it if you cannot find one, it shouldn't be too hard.
I was in a dollar store the other day and they had bride dolls. Check if you can find one and just use the clothes and veil.
